David Chartier and I walked all of the Valco Ponds/Rock Canyon area, below Pueblo Reservoir dam, Pueblo County. During our nearly 6 mile walk, we found nearly 60 species of birds. It was overcast and some drizzle at times.
The Yellow-throated Warbler I found on Friday, was present just east of the Cottonwood Picnic Area parking lot, on the south side of the River. Another surprising bird at this location was a Steller's Jay! There were a good number of birds around here as usual. Over in the eastern part of Osprey Picnic Area, on the North Side of the River, we found a nice flock of birds, which included Cassin's and Plumbeous Vireos, Yellow-breasted Chat, Brown Thrasher, Golden-crowned Kinglet, Mountain Chickadees, Red-breasted Nuthatch, among other birds. Both Eastern and Black Phoebes continue as well. Other warblers included, a Yellow, Orange-crowned, Wilson's, Common Yellowthroat, and a bunch of Yellow-rumpeds.
